The inequities in healthcare are on the mind of every person who has seen the beautiful faces and held the weary hands. This is not just some “nice to do” project. This is an initiative God is using to bring help and healing to the world. The local church is the hero and God is glorified.” Elizabeth Styffe RN, MN, Director of the HIV/AIDS, Orphan Care, and Western Rwanda HIV/AIDS Healthcare Initiatives ------------------------------------------------------------------------
“The greatest health problem for much of the world is not a lack of medicine, but a lack of access to it. There will never be enough professionals – doctors, nurses, and clinics – to care for all of the health needs in the world. But there is a church in practically every village of the world, and volunteers ready and willing to be trained. The PEACE Plan is an amateur movement. It is led by people who are motivated by love, not money or fame.” Dr. Rick Warren, Pastor, Saddleback Church ------------------------------------------------------------------------ “A few years ago I thought preaching was enough, that was my compassion. If we don’t do something, who will? If we don’t show compassion who will? If you don’t show up, who will?” Pastor Straton Gataha, Senior Pastor of the Living Church of Jesus Christ, Kigali, Rwanda
